erant Eidouranian philosopher,' &c. Query--the Walker of the book on the Lakes noticed in Vol. II. on p. 217? P. 63, l. 6. 'I have reason,' &c. Cf. Letter to Sir W.R. Hamilton, first herein printed, pp. 310-11. P. 68, l. 24. Dampier's' Voyages, 'etc.; viz.' Collection of Voyages.' London, 1729, 4 vols. 8vo. P. 72, l. 29. 'Fulke Greville, Lord Brooke.' His complete Works in Verse and Prose are given in the Fuller Worthies' Library, 4 vols. P. 76, l. 14. Spenser. An apparent misrecollection of the 'Fairy Queen,' b. iii. c. viii. st. 32, l. 7, 'Had her from so infamous fact assoyld.' P. 78, l. 6. 'Armstrong;' _i.e._ Dr. John Armstrong, whose 'Art of Preserving Health,' under an unpromising title, really contains splendid things. His portrait in the 'Castle of Indolence' is his most certain passport to immortality. P. 80, l. 21. 'The Last Supper of Leonardo da Vinci.' A reproduction of the head of our Blessed Lord, taken from the fresco (photograph), is given in the quarto edition of Southwell's complete Poems in the Fuller Worthies' Library--none the less precious that it pathetically reveals the marks of Time's 'effacing fingers.' No engraving approaches the 'power' of this autotype of the supreme original. P. 88, l. 32. 'Faber.' Among the treasures (unpublished) of the Wordsworth Correspondence are various remarkable letters of Faber--one, very singular, announcing his going over to the Church of Rome. P. 90, l. 34. 'Mr. Robinson.' Cf. 'Reminiscences' onward. P. 97, ll. 9-10, &c. 'Dyer.' Cf. note, Vol. II., on p. 296, l. 35. P. 97, l. 18. 'Mr. Crowe;' _i.e._ Rev. William Crowe, Public Orator of Oxford. His poem was originally published in 1786 (4to); reprinted 1804 (12mo). P. 98, l. 19. 'Armstrong.' See on p. 78, l. 6. P. 98, l. 20. 'Burns.' Verse-Epistle to William Simpson, st. 13; but for 'nae' read 'na,' and for 'na' read 'no.' P. 101, l. 9. 'Rev. Joseph Sympson.' This poet, so pleasantly noticed by Wordsworth, appears in none of the usual bibliographical authorities. Curiously enough, his 'Vision of Alfred' was republished in the United States--Philadelphia. P. 116, ll. 33-34. Quotation, Shakspeare, 'Henry VIII.' iii. 2. P. 120, l. 22. Quotation from Milton, 'Paradise Lost,' viii. l. 282. P. 125, l. 4. 'Mr. Hazlitt quoted,' &c. See Index, _s.n._ for Wordsworth's estimate of Hazlitt; also our Preface. P. 130, l. 17. Hill at St. Alban's. See 'Eccl. Hist.' _s.n._ P. 130, l. 31. 'Ge
